tam capi jitavan ramo

 dharmena chalam asritah

rukmi jitam mayatreme

 vadantu prasnika iti

 

Translation: 

 

Lord Balarama fairly won this wager also, but Rukmi again resorted to cheating and declared, “I have won! Let these witnesses here say what they saw.”

 

Purport: 

 

Rukmi undoubtedly had his friends in mind when he called for the witnesses to speak. But even as his witnesses prepared to aid their cheating friend, a wonderful event took place, as described in the next verse.
